Technical Abstract

Disclosed a liquid crystal display device including a backlight device including a white-emitting LED device which emits a white light arising from a color mixture created through a combination of a blue-emitting LED, a red-emitting phosphor and a green-emitting phosphor, and a color filter equipping color pixels exhibiting plural colors including a red pixel and formed on a transparent substrate, wherein the white-emitting LED device is enabled to exhibit an emission spectrum having a first peak wavelength falling within a range of 440-470 nm, a second peak wavelength falling within a range of 510-550 nm and a third peak wavelength falling within a range of 630-670 nm, and a red display chromaticity of the liquid crystal display device is confined within a region bounded by lines connecting four points (0.620, 0.280), (0.620, 0.300), (0.680, 0.315) and (0.680, 0.280) based on an xy chromaticity coordinate system.

Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.

1

1. A liquid crystal display device comprising: a backlight device including a white-emitting LED device which emits a white light arising from a color mixture created through a combination of a blue-emitting LED, a red-emitting phosphor and a green-emitting phosphor, and a color filter equipping color pixels exhibiting plural colors including a red pixel and formed on a transparent substrate, wherein the white-emitting LED device is enabled to exhibit an emission spectrum having a first peak wavelength falling within a range of 440-470 nm, a second peak wavelength falling within a range of 510-550 nm and a third peak wavelength falling within a range of 630-670 nm, and a red display chromaticity of the liquid crystal display device is confined within a region bounded by lines connecting four points (0.620, 0.280), (0.620, 0.300), (0.680, 0.315) and (0.680, 0.280) based on an xy chromaticity coordinate system.

2. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 1 , wherein a minimum relative luminescent intensity in a wavelength range between the second peak wavelength and the third peak wavelength is not more than 70% of lower one of a relative luminescent intensity at the second peak wavelength and a relative luminescent intensity value at the third peak wavelength.

8

8. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 1 , wherein the red pixel is formed by using a red photosensitive coloring composition which contains an organic pigment including at least C.I. Pigment No. PR177 and C.I. Pigment No. PR254 wherein not less than 25% and less than 80% of a total organic pigment in solid matters of the red photosensitive coloring composition is occupied by the C.I. Pigment No. PR177.

9

9. A liquid crystal display device comprising: a backlight device including a white-emitting LED device which emits a white light arising from a color mixture created through a combination of a blue-emitting LED, a red-emitting phosphor and a green-emitting phosphor, and a color filter equipping color pixels exhibiting plural colors including a red pixel and formed on a transparent substrate, wherein the white-emitting LED device is enabled to exhibit an emission spectrum having a first peak wavelength falling within a range of 440-470 nm, a second peak wavelength falling within a range of 510-550 nm and a third peak wavelength falling within a range of 630-670 nm, a minimum relative luminescent intensity in a wavelength range between the second peak wavelength and the third peak wavelength is not more than 70% of lower one of a relative luminescent intensity at the second peak wavelength and a relative luminescent intensity at the third peak wavelength, and the red pixel has a pigment composition and a film thickness, enabling a red display chromaticity of the liquid crystal display device to confine within a region bounded by lines connecting four points (0.620, 0.280), (0.620, 0.300), (0.680, 0.315) and (0.680, 0.280) based on an xy chromaticity coordinate system.

10

10. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 9 , wherein the red pixel is formed by using a red photosensitive coloring composition which contains an organic pigment including at least C.I. Pigment No. PR177 and C.I. Pigment No. PR254 wherein not less than 25% and less than 80% of a total organic pigment in solid matters of the red photosensitive coloring composition is occupied by the C.I. Pigment No. PR177.

11

11. A color filter to be employed in the liquid crystal display device defined in claim 1 , which comprises a transparent substrate, and color pixels exhibiting plural colors including a red pixel and formed on the transparent substrate, wherein the red pixel has such a pigment composition and film thickness that a red display chromaticity of the liquid crystal display device is confined within a region bounded by lines connecting four points (0.620, 0.280), (0.620, 0.300), (0.680, 0.315) and (0.680, 0.280) based on an xy chromaticity coordinate system.
